Ben Böhmer (Live)
Anjunadeep Open Air: London at The Drumsheds (Official 4K Set)
Welcome to East London, where the industrial warehouse aesthetic is meticulously curated for lads who work in finance but own one pair of vintage sunglasses. The amount of people trying to Shazam unreleased tracks while looking intensely spiritual is having a laugh. The cavernous expanse of The Drumsheds is bathed in hazy purple light, as the crowd sways collectively in the massive, echoing steel structure. This Rominimal set holds a steady 125.4 BPM, heavily exploring the emotional 6B, 4B, and 3B Camelot keys.
The mid-range energy here is notable, highlighting Böhmer's signature lush synth work. His live mixing style is incredibly fluid, building cinematic, slow-burn arcs rather than abrupt drops. Naturally, the Ben Böhmer The Drumsheds tracklist is packed with his own breathtaking productions. Dropping the Phobia Radio Edit of Sidekick's "Deep Fear" amidst his own catalog is a brilliantly cheeky move that caught everyone off guard.
The Ben Böhmer live set begins elegantly with the opening track "Unknown - Unknown". A massive highlight is the spine-tingling live rendition of "Father Ocean (Ben Böhmer Remix)", culminating beautifully with the heartfelt closing track "Home (feat. Jonah)".
